MIAMI — The Jupiter-Tequesta-Hobe Sound Council of the MIAMI Association Realtors (JTHS-MIAMI) recently donated more than $20,000 worth of food and personal items to El Sol, Jupiter’s Neighborhood Resource Center that provides essential services primarily to day laborers, their children, and families.
El Sol’s Food and Nutrition program, now in its 17th year, provides food to the neediest families in the community. About 8.9% of Palm Beach County residents experienced a lack of regular access to affordable and nutritious food in 2021, according to data from Feeding America.
“El Sol is one of the crown jewels of Jupiter,” 2022 JTHS-MIAMI President Brad Westover said. “It is wonderful to be a part of JTHS-MIAMI where serving others is what we do best.”
JTHS-MIAMI Leader Coordinated with his Local Church to Help with Donation
Westover – an Avanti Way Realtor and a 2023 JTHS-MIAMI board member – coordinated with his church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, to help with this amazing donation.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has farms all over the world to feed those in need. The food was delivered to the Bishop’s Storehouse in Davie. JTHS-MIAMI leaders then assisted with the delivery to El Sol as well as El Sol volunteers.
Food donation is one of many local initiatives JTHS-MIAMI has conducted throughout the years. JTHS-MIAMI also donated to the Palm Beach County Food Bank earlier this year.
